I think that is a proposal - not a standard. And even
if I am incorrect, the MUAs are the ones that need
to be fixed.

I just searched through all RFC's and not one
has 'mail-followup-to' (any or mixed case variation) in it.

The only draft (draft-palme-mailext-headers-08.tx) that
has that string specifically says it is non-standard.

So, nope.

Some do not like the REPLY-TO set, other like me feel then need it set.

Adding some kind of "if it is for the list  - reply to this emai address"
or if it is for the person use this reply-to address. This may be more of
a MUA than protocol issue. But it is a topic I have seen on several lists.

There's a standard for this; it's called Mail-Followup-To:.  See
http://cr.yp.to/proto/replyto.html and a bunch of other pages I don't have
time to dig up right now.
